Trade Union Confederation (CGIL)

The Italian General Confederation of Labour (CGIL) is Italy’s largest trade union organization, representing millions of workers across various sectors. It advocates for workers’ rights, better wages, safer working conditions, and social justice. Founded in 1944, CGIL engages in negotiations with employers and the government to improve labor laws and benefits. It also serves as a voice for workers’ interests, promoting equality and social inclusion. As a confederation, it coordinates various affiliated unions to ensure collective strength and effective representation in Italy’s labor and social policies.
